Friends, family, and vague acquaintances - if you know my name, you're included - can help support my silly print shop hobby by making use of the equipment I have. Every extra use helps justify my having bought it in the first place. Let me know if any of the following capabilities strikes your fancy.

Disclaimer
This is all a hobby. I'm happy to use my toys for your projects, but it may take a long time for me to get around to it. I basically just charge for materials. I try to be moderately competent with this equipment, but if something goes wrong the scanner and laminator can ruin things. If that happens I promise to feel bad about it when I give your mangled stuff back.
